What are the responsibilities and job description for the Accounting Manager position at HireMinds?
Accounting Manager – PE-Backed, High-Growth Platform (Boston | Hybrid)
We’re partnering with a private equity–backed operating platform that’s scaling rapidly through acquisitions and building a centralized accounting function to support continued growth.
This role is ideal for someone who started their career in public accounting (Big 4 preferred) and has since moved into the private sector, gaining hands-on experience in fast-paced, evolving environments.
What you’ll do:
- Own and run the month-end close process across multiple operating entities
- Support and clean up accounting for newly acquired businesses (cash → accrual, process standardization, integrations)
- Review journal entries, reconciliations, and financial reporting
- Partner closely with the Controller and work directly with the CFO
- Assist with inventory, cost of sales, and margin analysis
- Help build scalable processes as the company continues to grow through acquisitions
What we’re looking for:
- Background in public accounting (Big 4 strongly preferred)
- Experience in a private, PE-backed, or acquisitive environment
- Strong month-end close ownership and technical accounting foundation
- Exposure to inventory and/or operational accounting environments
- Leadership mindset — currently managing or ready to step into people/process leadership
- Comfortable in fast-moving, “build as you go” settings
The opportunity:
- High-visibility role with direct access to senior leadership
- Meaningful acquisition exposure and career growth runway
- Hybrid schedule: 1 day per week in Boston (near TD Garden)
- Competitive base salary, bonus eligibility, and strong benefits
This is not a maintenance role — it’s an opportunity to help build, scale, and lead within a growing platform.
